Putin in the Catbird Seat (9) - Trump's New World Order?

Putin is in the catbird seat. Russia is winning in Ukraine. Its economy is booming (despite sanctions). The Motherland has resolved long-running (probably US-fueled) disputes with China and India. BRICS and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization are going gangbusters. President Putin is ascendant. By keeping the Ukrainian hulk on life support with enough funding to keep Ukraine fighting but not enough funding to win the US is complicit in Vlad's victory.

I confess to wrongly believing that Trump would wash his hands of Ukraine thereby resolving the unnecessary US dispute with Russia. Instead, Trump has driven Russia and India into the arms of BRICS, SCO and China. We are looking at the literal creation of a tri-polar world. Europe is in free fall economically and culturally. Euro right of center populist movements will pick up the pieces of a broken Europe to reinfuse western cultural principles into Europe but, even so, Europe will lag for some time in a rapidly evolving global power paradigm.

Anyone wondering about the recent US initiatives against Venezuela? When considered with Trump's undermining Canada with tariffs and Trump's desire to acquire Greenland maybe that is what Trump has been looking for all along: a Trump forced Western Hemisphere bloc to co-exist with a China led global south bloc and a Russia led Eurasia bloc? A tri-polar world? And an end to globalist/WEF aspirations? Trump's ultimate revenge on the deep state for their efforts to bring him down? Hmmm.
